Daichi Sumi is Graduate Student in Sport and Health Science of Ritsumeikan University, and his research manuscript was accepted and published in The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, which collaborated with Associate Professor Kazushige Goto. The study revealed that endurance exercise under hypoxic conditions did no facilitate an exercise-induced muscle damage response or did not cause a further reduction in the endurance capacity compared with same relative exercise intensity under normoxic conditions.
